I don't know.. you wrote "I Want Artists" and I thought I knew some but everything I entered is wrong. that's why I'm asking.. maybe i need to enter only the surnames, or maybe the names too.. how do I separate more names? a comma in between, a dot, nothing? Arranged alphabetically? wiki or imdb style? and so on..

there's also the possibility that I'm looking in the wrong field of art =P

Well... there's only one answer for Q1, and apparently it's wrong. Firstname + Lastname is wrong, Lastname only is wrong, Firstname only is wrong...

are you bad at copy + paste?

Comment has been collapsed.

I literally copypasted every single possible answer, and also tried every permutation of the answers, firstname only, first+last, lastname only, multiple artist names seperated by commas, album names, and film names (truncated, copypasted, abbreviated). Knowing the expected format of the answer would certainly bump this up from "entirely impossible".

But whatevs, this one's obviously a little too obscure for me. Good luck with the giveaway. :)

what format, what commas?
you have songs and you need to find artists who performs those songs. nothing hard, you think too much of this

Ok, there are six listings, agreed? Only one of those is a song, three are albums, and then there's a film and a tv series.

There are three artist names associated with the song. If it were as simple as you say, the search would already be over here. But all of them are incorrect

I'm tempted to call shenanigans, but it does seem like 1 or 2 people actually figured out Q1. But the quiz is standing at 0 for 52 guessers, so who knows? :)

you try too hard. fyi, someone in all those listings are performing that song :D

Much the opposite of "trying too hard", my friend. Apparently solving this requires deep searching of multiple articles beyond what would seem to be the obvious answers. I'm obviously not trying hard enough.

Don't get me wrong - I appreciate a challenge! Tough quizzes are fun! And I appreciate your generosity, of course. But pretending it's simple and saying "can't you copypaste?" I find kinda insulting. Just saying. :)

I see someone finished the quiz though, congrats to that guy! And anyone else who tries way too hard on this. ;)

but you don't need any extended searches. answer to first song is easily found on wikipedia. other songs are pretty much easy as well

I don't know that that the other songs are just as easy. There are only about a dozen recorded versions of "Into the West". According to AllMusic, there are more than 6,000 recorded versions of a song titled "Pulse", and nearly 12,000 recorded versions of a song titled "Gravity". Figuring out what artist you are expecting is difficult when the question/hint seems to be a very common name for a song.

Thanks, that was the hint I needed to make some decent progress. Still stuck on Q7, Q8, and Q9, but I'm hoping inspiration will strike in the next few hours.

lol i can also assure you, that i could solve the first answer with the wiki

Comment has been collapsed.

Tried that, various formats, neither of them worked.

There are some in which you are sure you know the answer and BAM! your world starts to crumble instead.

But I can understand, since most of them are "common" titles (I'm not binding my research to only a single field), but I thought Q8 was the one with only one possibile answer. Seems I was wrong..

Thanks! I'll keep at it, but I might end up coming back to beg for hints. I've managed to get Q1 right, but I'm stuck on Q2. There are at least a dozen artists with a song or album titled "Pulse" I found using Google, and none of them seem to be the correct answer...

Edit: A more exhaustive search shows over 600 albums with the title "Pulse" and more than 6,000 songs with the title "Pulse". There may be some repeats showing in that search, but even so, this might take a while...

No clue what any of these answers are.
I thought they were songs but their corresponding artists didn't seem to work.
So I tried albums instead... still didn't work. :s
